Sit back. This one is a big one. In my limited understanding, spiritual warfare has always been difficult to wrap my mind around. After many years of God's prompting me, I have begun to realize the assault on all of us by spiritual, unseen forces. Don't let that throw you. There are a lot of unseen things in our lives that even the atheist believes in, like gravity and air, to name two. Now, here is the main idea for me today:
Nothing is achieved in the Kingdom of God without warfare. That includes the election of righteous individuals to the leadership of one of the key nations on the earth. As we pray, we must expect the enemy to attack in many ways. There will be attacks on candidates and their families, on the media, the Church, and perhaps the nation itself. Some will be clearly spiritual (can't see 'em), while other attacks may have physical manifestations (like the attack on our Embassy). Our call is to have great discernment as we pray and stand in the strength of Christ's victory.
Pray today around spiritual warfare issues involved in the election, such as:
* Great awareness and discernment for the Lord's praying people as they pray over the election.
* Physical protection for all candidates and their families throughout this campaign season.
* A strong hedge of protection around the nation itself during this time of decision.
* The unleashing of the sword of the Spirit throughout the nation, judging the thoughts and intents of the heart. Hebrews 4:12
Amen, Father
So, get ready to go to war! Are you with me?
